I need a nose cap:-(

[Steppenwolf]

Fellows I picked up an old timer, from a fellow gunnut, that has been wood bubba'd. Does anyone have any idea were a fellow could find a nose cap for a M1871/88 Dutch Beaumont-Vitali?

Can the idea involve time-travel?

Sorry man, but that's a very tough one. You could try Gunboards WTB - someone might have a full wood version with a shot bore, missing bolt or other parts that they are parting out. Some of the other more common and popular guns like the Mauser M71 have guys selling repro parts, but I'm not aware of them for the Beaumont.

I have a full-wood version, but I need the nosecap.

Thanks guys, Gunboards it is then, which is a great site by the way. The rifle pictured is quite pretty in person

I knew Andy would have a Beaumont. I would love to see your collection!

You are going to need a lot more than just a nosecap!
